Phil Hellmuth has just won Event 18 ($2,500 buy-in Seven-Card Razz) and laid hands on his 12th WSOP gold bracelet and $182,793 in prize money! The tournament attracted 309 players and not less than 6 former bracelet winners were among the top 8 finishers, so you can just imagine how tough it was for Hellmuth to reach his 12th WSOP bracelet - the most bracelets by any player in history!

Posted by fcumred: Whatever you think of him, he's undoubtedly the best poker player on the planet. His credentials in the biggest poker tournaments in the world stand up against anyone else.
Last year he was the first person ever to finish 2nd in three WSOP events in the same year. Thats how close he came to getting number 12 last year.
The guy for all his faults is phenomenal and the number of cashes in WSOP events blows everyone out the water.
Fair play to him though.. when you are as good as he is, you can afford to be arrogant and mouthy...
So everyone who is very good in a sport or something can afford to be arrogant ??
I like humble people more ... if he was humble about everything he would be a far greater champion if he was likeble
Non the less 1 of the best ever and probely the best live tournament player at this moment

I'm glad for him he's a very peculiar persona and for me the image of the true degenhero. Funny aswell to see that whatever it takes the same 10 people are still ruling the poker world for so many years makes me believe that if your truly commited and study the game deeply you can win consistely.
By the way Tony G already posted his toughts about Hellmuth's victory which is a very funny post indeed.

ooowwwhhhh you such a LITTLE BABAY and keep proving it with your comments
And yes i am gay so what ???
I'm just messing chill out FFS. I'm not even following you around. I didn't know you are gay and weren't calling you a gayboy in that particular definition. I've got nothing against gays and since you are gay, I'm sorry that was totally uncool of me.
